Reply to thread The R-Comp spokesperson's mad. None of Bagle, NetSky or Swen were Outlook-specific. They used tricks to actually get the curious to run the executables, not to get Outlook to run it automatically. Also, worms these days don't use Outlook's address book for searching for new addresses to send copies of itself to as such - they just search every file it can find on disc for things that look like addresses, and then use their own SMTP client to send them. So they catch out users of Eudora, Mozilla Mail, and even Messenger Pro for Windows just as badly as they do Outlook. nunfetishist on 5/3/04 7:32PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ] Please login before posting a comment.
